Heart Amulet in Black Stone – Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom (1550–1300 B.C.)

Elegant heart-shaped amulet carved from black stone, dating to the New Kingdom of Ancient Egypt (circa 1550–1300 B.C.).
This finely crafted piece measures 25 x 15 x 11 mm and features a small suspension loop, suggesting it was originally worn as a personal pendant.

In ancient Egyptian belief, the heart was considered the seat of the soul and the source of thought and emotion. Amulets of this kind were placed on the body of the deceased or worn by the living as powerful symbols of protection, renewal, and eternal life.
A beautiful artifact that reflects both the spiritual symbolism and artistic refinement of the New Kingdom.
